I have at last got around to reading Angela's Ashes which I throughly enjoyed. So much so that I started this sequel today. Apologies to iwanttobeinital that it has taken me so long. It is normally my policy to read and move on titles I have been given by other Bookcrossers in a more reasonable time scale. No excuses for having this one on Mt TBR for over a year!

Journal Entry 5 by LindyLouMac from Tywyn, Wales United Kingdom on Thursday, May 24, 2007
Having finished Anglea's Ashes only a few days ago and given it a good review I decided to go straight into the sequel. Maybe this was not such a good idea as I was disappointed. Personally I found it nothing like as emotionally stirring as Angela's Ashes, neither was it written in such an exhilarating style. At times I found it rather stilted with no clear explanation of the time setting. It appeared to jump about somewhat and great chunks of time were missing. For instance suddenly two of his brothers were in New York and running a bar, yet I do not remember them even arriving. I think maybe he was trying to fit too much into the sequel which somehow spoilt it for me. I did enjoy but maybe I should not have read it directly after the first one?

Update 29/05/07 reserved for a fellow Italian language student who has also become a Bookcrosser.

Given to me by a classmate at Progetta Lingua in Viterbo. I read Angela's Ashes many years ago, and I'm looking forward to re-reading it and now the sequel.
